Final Self Evaluation

I have written 10 (or 11) blog posts since the last evaluation period.I have written 2 every week.I didn’t know that the purpose of the video was to have us speak in front of the camera so I asked Casey from the ORC to help me create that post.I posted 26 comments on other posts.My goal for this period was to write a little riskier posts to try to get conversations going.It seemed that I was a little late on trying this because I think that people got sick of commenting by the end of the semester.It was still a good learning experience to put my opinion out to the public.The religion one is a very controversial topic and I get the feeling that most of the people in our class don’t believe in anything at all so it was scary to put my beliefs on the line.I also had the writer of Dean’s Corner post on my blog!! I know that many others had many outside people posting on their blogs but I’m glad I got at least one outsider to find my post.

This was a good experience.I think we should’ve started reading the Don’t Be Such a Scientist earlier in the semester instead of some of the less useful readings that we did.I don’t like the writer because he has a little bit of an annoying style of writing but overall I think we can learn a lot from the book.

This class has probably been one of the most frustrating classes that I have taken so far but I hope that it’ll turn out to be a good “learning experience”.Although I don’t think I will ever blog about science, I might do it for my personal use.I’m glad I’ve learned what a blog is and how to set one up.Goodbye blog
